>Like I said, DX12 is AMD's modified Mantle API, an API which performs worse on Nvidia cards.
Uhhh. I think you're thinking of Vulkan there, buddy. DirectX 12 is a similar API, but it's not based off of mantle.
The most of rest of what you've said is true, although I'll point out that dual GPU cards aren't really great for standard purposes, what with the whole 'nobody really truly supports that just yet as standard', and Nvidia's use of GDDR5X is due to manufacturing limitations on HBM2. I'll also ask if you've got something more solid RE: Vega10 than rumors suggesting Nvidia's release has caused them to shift up the timetable, because otherwise their main goal is to get the R9 400s (which are not enthusiast grade, they're replacements for the main 200/300 series cards) out at the end of this month. While they'll have major performance boosts it's unlikely they're going to outright beat a Fury or Nano.
I'm as heavily on Team Red as I can be, but let's not make shit up wholecloth like Polaris is the second coming of Jesus. We'll have to wait a little longer for Zen and Vega for that to happen.
